Unify the 32 and 64 bit specific Makefiles.
The unification was simplest to do in one step although the
readability of the patch suffers a bit from this.
Noteworthy remarks on the unification:
- The 64 bit cpu stuff should be moved to Makefile_32.cpu
but I did not feel confident doing it due to subtle differences
- The use of cflags-y were abandoned since we have seen one bug where
we did wrong due to missing assignment to KBUILD_CFLAGS.
The cc-option marcro uses KBUILD_CFLAGS.
- The "No need to remake" line are deleted. It caused "make -B" to fail
- For 64 bit the sub architecture stuff is not used.
- The way head64.o is specified could be nicer - but it awaits the
introduction of head32.o (which seems like a win to introduce for readability)
- Patch is checkpatch clean
Patch is tested by doing a defconfig build for i386 and x86_64 and in both
cases monitoring that only relevant files were recompiled when applying
the patch.

This removes all the old vsyscall code from arch/x86/ia32/ that is
no longer used because arch/x86/vdso/ code has replaced it.

Michael Opdenacker reported:
For backward compatibility with earlier (< 2.6.24) kernels,
arch/i386/boot/bzImage or arch/x86_64/boot/bzImage symbolic links to
arch/x86/boot/bzImage are created when you build an x86 kernel. The
arch/i386 or arch/x86_64 directories are then created for this only
purpose.
Issue: these generated directories and symbolic links are *not cleaned
up* when you run "make mrproper" (and thus "make distclean"). This
disturbs the production of patches, because the source tree is left with
generated files and directories.
Sam has an alternative fix:
The directory is killed during make clean as opposed to make mrproper.

For x86 ARCH may say i386 or x86_64 and soon x86.
Rely on CONFIG_X64_32 to select between 32/64 or just
hardcode the value as appropriate.

Moving the ARCH specific Makefiles for i386 and x86_64
required a litle bit tweaking in the top-lvel Makefile.
SRCARCH is now set in the top-level Makefile
because we need this info to include the correct
arch Makefile.
